Abstract:
Portal vein thrombosis (PVT) is one of the common complications of cirrhosis, which induces or aggravates ascites and upper gastrointestinal bleeding and even impacts the difficulty of liver transplantation by raising portal pressure, hence deteriorating the prognosis of patients. With the revelation of PVT-related research findings in recent years, the recognition of its mechanism and clinical risks has deepened. This article reviews the latest progress in PVT formation mechanisms and treatment strategies to improve clinicians' recognition of the pathogenesis and aid in formulating reasonable prevention and treatment.
